cre mysh? (kra-MUSH) - what about?
pooar (poor) - power
chesh-veanagh (chesh-VAYN-akh) - nuclear
noadyr (NAWTH-er) - neither
speeideilagh (speed-AYL-akh) - successful
sy Rank (sa-RANK) - in France
gaueagh (GOW-akh) - dangerous

The ‘g’ in ‘gaueagh’ becomes ‘gh’ after ‘ro’ (raw) - ‘too’.

lught yn argid (LUKHT-in-ERG-idd) - the people with money

Apart from the meanings given in Cregeen’s dictionary for ‘lught’ (‘load, cargo, burden’), this word can mean ‘a group of people’ - as in
‘lught-thie’ (lukht-tie) - ‘family’ (people associated with a house/home).

toiggal (TIGG-al) - understanding
cha jean ad cur (ha-JINN-add-KURR) - they will not give

Instead of ‘cha jean ad cur’, we can say ‘cha der ad’ (ha-DERR-add) for ‘they will not give’.

cur er e hoshiaght (KURR-err-a-HOZH-akh) - promoting
she yn reiltys (SHAY-in RAYL-tiss) - it’s the government
agh (akh) - but
dy gheddyn rey rish (the-GHETH-in-RAY-rish) - to get rid of
geayl (GEE-ul) - coal
ymmydey (IMM-ad-a) - using
choud’s nagh vel shin (HOUDS-nakh-VELL-shin) - as long as we’re not
ny smoo as ny smoo (na-SMOO-azz-na-SMOO) - more and more
